Dr. Kelli Ward, the chairman of the Arizona Republican Party, immediately took to Twitter to excoriate McCain. “She has NO IDEA what she’s talking about,” wrote Ward, an osteopathic doctor. “Anyone who would seek her out as credible on GOP issues is a #FakeNews hack.

The Arizona Secretary of State’s office said as of October 2020, the county consisted of about 35% registered Republicans and 31% registered Democrats, but certified results showed that Biden won 50.3% (1,040,774) to Trump’s 48.1% (995,665), a difference of about 45,000 votes in a state Biden claimed by 11,000.
It was one of several states where Trump claimed voter fraud cost him the election.
